The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have promoted wide receiver Freddie Martino to the 53-man roster, again, and waived wide receiver Donteea Dye, also again. Dye was promoted to the roster earlier this week to replace Vincent Jackson, who went on injured reserve with an ACL injury.
This is a weird move that suggests the Bucs simply messed up when they promoted Donteea Dye earlier this week. Koetter said on Friday that Dye wasn’t fit enough to play, which, well, why’d you promote him then? Practice squad players are in the building, nothing should have changed in Dye’s fitness between Monday and Friday.
